About Me

I have been married for 7 years to my wonderful husband. I am a pre k teacher and have been teaching for 10 years! I am a christian and try to follow God's path in all that I do!
Brandon and I tried to concieve since February of 2007. Since July of 2008 we saw a RE to help along the process. In January of 2010 we were blessed with a beautiful daughter! We are now on roller coaster again trying to conceive number 2!!

My Favorite Quotes!!

"The more you are focused on time-past and future-the more you miss the now, the most precious thing there is. Life is NOW." Eckhart Tolle"There are only 2 ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though EVERYTHING is a miracle!"

It's been 13 days!

It's been 13 days since my 2nd IUI. Last month I spotted on day 14 and started my period on day 14....so we'll see. I'm trying not to get my hopes up but I want to be pregnant so bad. I know every situation is one that we needed to be in at the time and the outcome always benefits us in the long run. I'm hoping that God thinks I've learned enough and he is ready for me to have a baby. If he thinks I still have more to learn than I will pray about it and try to be strong:)

Continuing to pray for you. Sometimes when I read others struggles I have this deep desire to reach out and do something. Then I realize there is nothing I can do. Just pray and ask our Abba Daddy to hear our cries and answer our prayers, to comfort and strengthen us and help us to see our lives through spiritual eyes and not our physical ones.
